Yes - as I mentioned below, I had run cleanUp! - I didn't
delete my prefetch files though. I will be doing that now. I
also run version 3.12 - not the newer version. And I'm
positive they are spyware. I've also googled it. I've
removed it umteen times and it comes back - so there is
something on here re-creating it. I get pop ups non-stop.
I'm going to follow the suggestions that Chris made - I've
printed them out - and I'm going to cross my fingers that
they work!
I am currently running a program that I found on a forum
that was suggested - but I don't know if it is free or not -
it said it was, but another one they suggested that they
said was free, and it wasn't. Nope! not free!
I'm going to re-boot and do all of this other stuff now!

Do you have  CleanUP??? I use at least twice a day..it gets
rid of lots of
stuff including everything in Prefetch.  Nother thing...I
don't know what
those things are you posted but are you SURE they are
spyware???some things
SAY things are and it's just their opinion.. We are being
told so much stuff
is spyware because with all that is out there paranoia is
rampant..Everylittle thing we jump at. Maybe we don't NEED
to...if you
haven't YET, try some homework on google. Research whatever
is bothering
you. see what the story is.. ????

Please read the entire email for my problems! Also - please
don't tell me to get rid of internet explorer.
I am infected with spyware. I am getting non-stop internet
explorer pop ups.
I have scanned with norton online - panda online - microsoft
anti-spyware - adaware - I deleted a file in hijackThis -
Pest patrol - it used to be really good, but I think it is
corrupted. It didnt' find it, and it is supposed to.

microsoft finds it and deletes it and it is right back. I
don't have anything in add/remove and I don't have any extra
things appearing on the top of my internet explorer.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I've run cleanUP! also - and manually tried to delete a file
from my regular temp folder - and it won't delete.
Can I get to that one in safe mode?
I haven't been so frustrated in ages!!!

Cris
